of course, that's the whole point of backintime.  it
was/is/has been obvious, even to me, but it is not the
question and never has been.

my question was and is: why does
  du -s *
show 86MG for the second and now third backups, and
  du -s 20170607-230005-357
as well as
  du -hd1 20170607-230005-357
show 35MB?

this is not obvious to me -- if it is to you, please
explain.
